Spread across 122 m² of usable interior and complemented by a total of 152 m² of terraces (a 42 m² main terrace plus a 110 m² rooftop solarium), this three‑bedroom penthouse was completed in 2022 with contemporary finishes and abundant glazing. The corner position increases natural light and privacy; as shown in the photos, living spaces flow onto the main terrace, extending the open-plan living and kitchen into an alfresco dining area.

  • Key living highlights

• Three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms designed for both family life and lock‑up‑and‑leave second‑home use • Private lift access into the apartment for discreet arrival and convenience • Rooftop solarium with panoramic coastline views—built for entertaining and long seasonal use • Two parking spaces and a storage room within the secure community

Why international buyers should take notice

At a listed price of EUR 1,350,000, this property sits in a segment that appeals to buyers seeking a coastal residence with turnkey condition and rental potential. The images capture the infinity pool and gym with sea views—amenities that increase year‑round attractiveness for guests or long‑stay renters. For investors, the combination of modern build (2022), low maintenance outdoor surfaces, and immediate beach access about 600 m away supports both lifestyle appeal and market liquidity in the Costa del Sol.

Practical checks for buyers

International buyers should verify community rules and running costs, confirm the ownership of parking and the storage room, and review rental restrictions if short‑term letting is part of the plan. JMA Prime Estate includes these checks in their listing pack and can provide past community accounts and detailed service charge breakdowns on request. The photo set helps pre‑qualify the property by showing finishes, outdoor areas and views before an in‑person visit.

How JMA Prime Estate sourced and presents this home

Property image 4

JMA Prime Estate, based in Fuengirola and four years active on the Costa del Sol, markets this penthouse in a way that reflects their specialization across luxury, investment and vacation properties. Their process begins with hyperlocal valuation—benchmarked against recent closings in Benalmádena and nearby Fuengirola—followed by practical staging and a photographic brief designed to highlight usable outdoor space and sea‑facing angles. The provided images demonstrate that brief: terraces, the solarium and community pool are shown to communicate both scale and lifestyle.

  • Agent value delivered

• Local market intelligence to price the property competitively • Compliance support for international buyers, including documentation for non‑resident purchasers and NIE guidance • In‑house coordination of viewings, legal contacts and post‑sale handover • Transparent listing packs with measured floor plans, community accounts and utility details

Compliance, credentials and why they matter

For cross‑border buyers, the agency’s compliance record is as important as the property itself. JMA Prime Estate presents clear credentials and documentation workflows: local licensing, anti‑money‑laundering (AML) checks, and routinely produced property due‑diligence packs. Their profile on third‑party platforms shows a score of 74.21/100 and an average customer rating of 5, indicating consistent client satisfaction; as part of their standard service they supply buyers with a checklist of legal steps, expected costs (transfer tax, notary, registration) and an explanation of ongoing community obligations.

What to request from an agent when buying in Spain

  • Essential documents and clarifications

• Full title deeds and evidence of developer warranties (for newer builds) • Comunidad (community) minutes and recent accounts • Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) and structural declarations where available • Clear breakdown of taxes, fees and recommended local lawyers/gestors

Benalmádena in context: lifestyle and market signals

Property image 5

Benalmádena offers a coastal mix that suits both full‑time residents and holiday owners: promenades and beachside chiringuitos meet easy road and rail connections into Málaga and Fuengirola. A three‑bedroom, turnkey penthouse with extensive terraces captures two buyer profiles—families seeking a coastal base and buyers prioritising rental income during high season. The proximity to Carvajal Beach (around 600 m) and the quality of the community amenities are practical selling points that underpin resilience in demand for modern seafront apartments on the Costa del Sol.

Market signals to watch

  • Short checklist for assessing similar investments

• Build year and warranty status—newer builds carry lower immediate maintenance risk • Usable outdoor area—larger terraces substantially increase rental appeal and usable living area • Community amenities and management—well‑run communities retain value better • Access to transport and services—walkable distance to beaches, transport and restaurants increases occupancy potential
